Kryy Jacobi (Karyn) of The Jedi Assembly posted recently about finding a starburst lamp at Fry’s Electronics. She placed it in the same plastic baseball display cube I had used for my original holocron. It has a very narrow cord that can be strung out of the cube to its battery pack.

Materials:
Acrylic baseball display case
Clear cling window decal for ink jet printer
Glue dots
silver 3-D paint
Circuitry graphics found on the internet

This is a photo tutorial on how to make the Jedi Food capsules as seen on the belts of Jedi characters in Ep I and II.

I have based this tutorial on one I found a couple years ago at
http://home.newbernnc.com/bobadebt/Weapons/Jedi%20Food%20Capsules/jedi_foodcapsules_main.htm However, it has not been available for many months. It was originally done by "Bobadept". Thus I am creating a new tutorial. The parts for the food capsules are described at http://www.partsofsw.com/Ep_1/index.htm

Star Wars props and costume accessories, including a short photo tutorial on making the Jedi communicator.

This is the making of the Jocasta Nu costume from Star Wars Ep. II as I did it in 2002.
2005: Now that it has been confirmed that the markings are embroidered, I'll be re-doing this. I've also seen the real costume at FIDM
From here http://public.fotki.com/Kait/star_wars/fidm_-_dressing_a/8jocastanu1.html through photo #63

Here's how to make the Jedi Belt worn by Qui-Gon, Obi-Wan and Anakin in Episodes I & II. First there are some reference photos which illustrate the fact that there is quite a variety in the style.

Materials: 2 in wide leather belt blank; 1 in wide leather belt blank; leather dye in preferred color; buckles, 1 large for the back and the "fashion" buckle for the front; regular leather rivets and Sam Browne rivets; leather punch; leather glue
